placed on the anpernumerary Hat and tho
charges against Col Camp and the six Cap

row night for conspiracy wore dismissed
bl hewerer does not settle the trouble In
the l rentyseooadaud there Is still a strong
te rbabJ that the regiment will be i
banded With tee three companies dis
banded the onranlzatlon that remains will b
DeltLerareirtment nor a battalion For the
form organisation eight companies are re
aiilred and for the latter there cannot be
more than ill There will be seven companies
to be disposed of and It was suggested bJ an
officer yesterday that this might be done by
organizing one command as a separate com
pany and attaching It to the battalion that
would remain
Att r a consultation with Cot Camp Lieut
CoL Kins and several of the Captains of the

The trpuble In the Twentypecona Reel
tnent has not boen settled by the bandmont
ol the three companies I did not at the
meeting of the officers lat Mondaytnltjht do
band their resignations I simply asked how
many were willing to resign The resigna
tions that hate bon handed In will now be
wi
held In abeyance The case Is just this I did
pot propose to go back over the quarrels that
lao 10t been disturbing this regiment for tnq
past two years I was nonlh that we found
Jar a
1 tn this condition and the only thing to do
wu to wipe out the wrangling or disband tho
regiment t Three companies havo been dis
banded and we shall now make a thorough
snde toronlh
Investigation of the seven that remain There
too been some reference to their accounts
and they wlllbe Investigated I It Is I found
that the remaln0 officers in the regiment are
Willing t work tether anft make sacrifices
Ifneea b t Drips the Twentysecond up to
the proper standard then It will not be dis
banded If however this Investigation proves
that this Is Impossible and that the wrangling
will ontLue then the regiment will be tile
J lianinil In the mean limo the > resignations

lotin exit they will be accepted

THE PATRIOT
Harrlsburg today has 13000 Inhabitants and
al the city ooreran territory of almost ten miles
the streets are broad well laid out and the
city abounds In beautiful drives In the sub
urbs upon farms which only a few years aio
were valued t1 little or nothing whole tillages
have been built up within the last three roars
and In Mite of the largo number of houses
goIng UP spie nil sides rentals are well main
tained which Is certainly the bet evidence > of
1 bolid proupoilty rather than a speculative
ekyroclety and fictitious mmii mice
As already ontloncd above Col Ewing of
